Bluesky are openly welcoming, verifying and hosting accounts of prominent far right politicians. Trump's VP Vance is now on Bluesky:

"We welcome the Vice President to the conversation on Bluesky" (Bluesky in their email to Fox News)

More 🚩: Bluesky is centralised, run by a for-profit corporation, its CEO has blockchain background, it is partly owned by VCs & Blockchain Capital.

Bluesky are going down exactly the same Nazi Bar path as Twitter.

I keep saying it's a Twitter clone in every way possible. I keep being proven right.

@dzwiedziu @ozzelot @FediTips @mastodonmigration he already *was* banned. They walked it back and made it so it wouldn't happen again.

You may have heard VP JD Vance is now on #Bluesky https://twp.ai/4iokRP ""We welcome the Vice President to join the conversation on Bluesky," the company said." Would like to point out this is a fundamental weakness of a centralized US corporate platform. The company has no practical option but to 'welcome' VP Vance. In a truly decentralized network, individual instances have options on how to deal with such a situation. With Bluesky it's an all or nothing proposition.

@dzwiedziu They ban these people only when they suspect impersonation. Once they confirm it's the genuinely shitty account - they verify it.

He will not be banned. He is too powerful. The company would have to stand up to power, which is not going to happen.
